Plasma 5.20 Kickoff Notes

[Jonathan Riddell]

# Plasma 5.19 review
* Much better than 5.18 :)
* ksysguard broke late because reviews sat around for a long time and
kstats rename cherry-picked
* Don't be clever
* new monitoring applet not too well received, some features are missing
compared to old ones
* consider uploading old applets to KDE-look
* consistent headers did not work with breeze-dark theme:
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/plasma-framework/-/merge_requests/12
* Beta testing days, calls on BigBlueButton and testing out new releases?
* https://phabricator.kde.org/T2069
* Let's plan it after one week after beta release
* Reviews of major and big things should be done close to beginning of cycle


# 5.20 schedule - https://community.kde.org/Schedules/Plasma_5

* invent.kde.org "Noteworthy" label and "5.20" milestone in gitlab can be
used to mark merge requests for use by promo writers

- 5.20 Release schedule looks generally fine
- We added Beta test Day in the schedule for 5.20
- in future KDE will move to NextCloud for calendar
- in future we should look into Gitlab releases API (5.21 material though)
- Jonathan to review ilya issue where 5.19 is scheduled wrong

# 5.20 Qt and KF5 requirements

- David Edmundson says 5.15 would be preferred but can survive without it.
- David Edmundson to check with distributions on distro/packager mailing
list

# Old Workboard items review
* We need to work out gitlab workflows for work items, it should be
smoother, we'll discuss on Sunday, but sysadmin working on gitlab CI
